Why do staplers have 2 settings - 1 where the staple folds in and 1 where the staple fold out. I dont know anyone who uses a stapler on the fold out setting? Do You? If you do let me know. What are your thoughts on this life/death matter?  |

I've always wondered what that function was for, fascinating ;D
I used to turn all the teachers staplers to that setting in the hope that they would nick their finger at some point in the future, simple things amuse simple minds.

I never really noticed, but i just checked and well seems pointless but i guess you do learn something new everyday.

Always in for me. Standard stapling is done on my black Banner, it takes 24/6 or 26/6 size staples. For the big work, I reach over for the daddy, a heavy silver Rexel affair that punches out the heavy duty 2-60's. I'm ashamed to say that my hole punch is just a standard Classic 7482.  |

Tragically I do know the reason for the two settings but it would be very boring for me to explain, so I cannot be arsed. |

do a google image search (make sure the safe search is off) for "standard Classic 7482". No wonder Prong is so ashamed ;D ;D ;D sorry Prong. |
